    Well it's basically a vertical conveyer belt. It has buckets attached to the belt that scoop grain from a pit and take it to the top and dumps it. That's a little simplified but a basic explanation.

    Its two complete legs less the buckets and belt. Head section, boot, and trunking. Even have the bar grates for the pit. Head section and boots are always shipped back to back. Usually have the belt but we never haul the buckets. They come in cardboard boxes and are no fun to haul on an open deck so they get shipped direct.

    My first flatbed load out of bull moose, there is 16 5,400lb straps alternating belly straps. My tarps are 2 steel and 1 smoke. I think I did pretty good for my first flatbed load. I'm pretty sure it ain't moving. Load weight is 42,223 lbs

    I would hate be be the guy servicing that trailer. Don't think the belly would fit under the bumper. Crawl from the lading gear all the way back and hope you got what you need. After the 15th time me thinks the air shields would have an "accident".
